Rediscover the magic of the holidays infused with a heartfelt twist this December at our annual “Holiday Spectacular!” This isn't your average evening of yuletide carols. Here, each note sung is a whispered promise, a warm embrace in musical form.
While we dazzle you with classic holiday favorites and some new surprises, know that beneath each winter-kissed melody is the underlying message that you are seen, valued, and cared for. Let's celebrate the season where hearts feel lighter, hope shines brighter, and connections are forged amidst a Bay Area backdrop.
After all, isn't that what the holidays are truly about? Mark your calendar for a concert experience that blends the enchantment of the season with the transformative power of compassion and community.
